Spring 2012
Barley protein derived antioxidant peptides and biodegradable /edible films have been successfully prepared. Alcalase hydrolyzed barley glutelin demonstrated significantly higher antioxidant capacity than those treated by flavourzyme in radical scavenging capacity (O2•¯/OH˙), Fe2+-chelating...

Spring 2011
Barley protein based microcapsules (1-5µm) incorporating fish oil/β-carotene were successfully prepared. Well suspended solid microcapsules, rather than emulsions, were able to form after high pressure emulsifying process. These wet-status microcapsules could be turned into dry powder by a spray...

Characterization and Functional Beverage Development using Coenzyme Q10-Impregnated Beta-glucan
DownloadSpring 2017
Pressurized gas-expanded liquid (PGX) technology is a supercritical fluid technique used for producing micro/nano-particles, agglomerates and fibers from an aqueous solution of a high molecular weight biopolymer, which can also be employed for encapsulation or impregnation. PGX-processed...

Intestinal Uptake of Barley Protein Nanoparticles as Delivery Vehicles for Bioactive Compounds
DownloadFall 2013
The use of nanoparticles as nutrient delivery vehicles enables the enhancement of the oral bioavailability and health promoting benefits of bioactive compounds. Barley protein nanoparticles were developed in previous study for hydrophobic compound delivery. The objective of the present study was...

Investigation of Barley Proteins’ Interfacial Properties and Their Applications as Nanoscaled Materials
DownloadSpring 2016
The overall objective of this thesis research is to gain fundamental knowledge on the relationship between barley protein molecular structures and their interfacial properties as well as to develop barley protein value-added applications with special emphasis on their utilization as nanoparticles...

Mechanisms of Neonatal Intestinal Failure-Associated Liver Disease: Exploring the Gut-Liver Axis
DownloadSpring 2018
Neonates with intestinal failure (IF), who must rely on parenteral nutrition (PN) for growth and maintenance of health, are at risk for intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD). In neonates, short bowel syndrome (SBS) as a result of intestinal resection is the most common cause of IF....

Physicochemical properties and microencapsulation process development for fish oil using supercritical carbon dioxide
DownloadSpring 2010
Fish oil is an excellent source of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA), which can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in addition to other health benefits. However, the average intake of LC-PUFA in the Western diet is much lower than the recommended levels. Fish oil is prone to...
